Sometimes, my former paper of employ runs stories that rock like mighty thing that rocketh. And Neely's column's not bad either.

The first chapter. - The Boston Globe

I debated about adding this one, since it is less than flattering. However, if I'm going to point to the good ones, it seems only fair to point to the mediocre ones. After all, ignoring bad press is the federal government's job, not mine. - ELLE Magazine

- James M. Tabor: Blind Descent: The Quest to Discover the Deepest Place on Earth
While Tabor's voice is workmanlike, the explorers he's talking about are fascinating - as are all of the things they do in order to go down in a hole. - Robert Charles Wilson: Julian Comstock: A Story of 22nd-Century America
It's like Mark Twain meets Robert A. Heinlein with Wilson's usual lucid approach. He just keeps getting better as a writer. - Paolo Bacigalupi: The Windup Girl
Bleak. So very bleak. Very, very good and beautifully written but oh so bleak. Now I need a happy bunny rainbow chaser. - John Heilemann: Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime
So far, I have learned that the Clintons and I stayed in the same hotel in Concord, NH. Oh - and that I never, ever want to run for president. - Kitty Burns Florey: Sister Bernadette's Barking Dog: The Quirky History and Lost Art of Diagramming Sentences
I'm starting to ponder books for a college writing class. Sister B is amusing and gives me a better appreciation for grammar. I'm enjoying it - but will a student? - Barbara Kingsolver: The Poisonwood Bible: A Novel (P.S.)
I managed to miss this when it was big but saw a $1 copy at my local used book store and was compelled. Dang, this is an amazing book. I can see what all the fuss was about. - Scott Westerfeld: Leviathan
All the cool kids were reading it. And I can see why. Great YA steampunk/WWI mashup with a strong female protagonist. - Terry Pratchett: Unseen Academicals (Discworld)
I usually save Pratchett's Discworld books for the iPod but I've heard such good things about this one that I had to read read it, rather than listen read it.
